To build a collaborative network of individuals and organizations seeking to guide and support collaboration around innovation, broadband adoption, and the education of digital citizens in Rhode Island and beyond.
Join Us in Getting Started
To begin, we are hoping to build an initial list of people and organizations who are interested in helping to position Rhode Island for the future by providing broadband access for everyone and creating sustainable programs that build digital literacy skills. You can get involved by adding your name, organization, and contact email/webpage at the About Us page, as well as a brief description of what you are currently working on in the area of digital literacy, and what you would like to see happening in Rhode Island as we look to the future. Be sure to share this website with your colleagues and others who you think would like to get involved in some capacity. As the list of contacts grows, we will begin to cluster our names around areas of interest and expand the website in ways that meet our needs. Then, we'll start working together to ensure that all Rhode Islanders have the opportunity to participate and prosper in the digital age.
Who Are We and What Are We Interested In?
